If you’re a woman over the age of 50, chances are you’ve struggled with “the change”.
The hot flashes… headaches… and mood swings are enough to drive anyone crazy.
And according to new research, the mainstream can take things from bad to WORSE.
That’s because their #1 menopause “cure” can put you on the fast track to a deadly disease.
Here’s what you need to know.
A new study looked at the long-term effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) – synthetic hormones prescribed to help relieve menopause symptoms – in women over 50 and what they found was shocking…
Women who took HRT for five years had a 32 percent increased risk for breast cancer.
Even worse? Women who took HRT for more than 10 years had a 50 percent increased risk.
What is going on?
In order to mass-produce and sell hormones as medications, Big Pharma has to make synthetic versions that are different from the natural ones in your body.
But those changes can have a HUGE effect on your health.
You see, these altered hormones are given in a pill or patch at a dose that usually makes their impact much stronger.
And it’s these stronger estrogens that cause breast cancer.
That’s because estrogen acts like a messenger that tells these cells to grow and divide. And the more growing and dividing a cell does, the more likely it is to turn to cancer.
But this doesn’t mean you have to suffer through menopause without any help.
All you have to do is ask your doc about bioidentical hormones. These are natural hormones – just like the ones found in your body – and shown to be safer than their synthetic counterparts.
